Child-Restraint System Types

In this owner's manual, explanation of
child-restraint systems is provided for the
following three types of popular
child-restraint systems: infant seat, child
seat, booster seat.

NOTE



Installation position is determined by
the type of child-restraint system.
Always read the manufacturer's
instructions and this owner's manual
carefully.



Due to variations in the design of
child-restraint systems, vehicle seats
and seat belts, all child-restraint systems
may not fit all seating positions. Before
purchasing a child-restraint system, it
should be tested in the specific vehicle
seating position (or positions) where it
is intended to be used. If a previously
purchased child-restraint system does
not fit, you may need to purchase a
different one that will.

Infant seat

An infant seat provides restraint by
bracing the infant's head, neck and back
against the seating surface.

Child seat

A child seat restrains a child's body using
the harness.

Booster seat

A booster seat is a child restraint
accessory designed to improve the fit of
the seat belt system around the child's
body.

When using a backless booster seat, 
always install the vehicle head 
restraint to the seat where the 
backless booster seat is installed.
